Application for the Leader of Environment


To whom it may concern.


I’m writing today to apply for the position of the environment leader.
I will help the school to go green and the students to learn about the outdoors.
I strongly believe that I would work well with the students, teach them responsibility and show them
the power of their actions. I’m writing because I believe that I will be the most suitable for this level of
responsibility.


I will brighten up the school with students art, and make an efficient recycling and compost system.
By giving the students a roll to play, they will learn responsibility and give them the chance to see that
with a bit of effort anything can happen.


Staying healthy is a big problem for some people so I believe that St Patrick’s should be able to give
out fresh healthy meals, It’s as easy as setting up and garden and having the students in groups to
look after one plant each. Using recycled wood we can make little gardens to grow these plants.  


As you have read I would make a great leader and can help the school and students in a lot of ways.
Thank you for taking the time to read and putting my letter into account.



Yours Sincerely



Kurt

Pablo Picasso


Did you know that Pablo Picasso crafted around 50,000 pieces of art!!!


Pablo Picasso was born in 1881 and began his career in 1894, in the start of his career he started
painting in blue and black this was known as the blue period (between 1901 and 1904), the reason
for the color choices where to represent his feeling from His friend, Carlos Casagemas after he
committing suicide at the age of 20 for his unrequited love of Germaine Pichot.


Pablo made a co-finding of Cubist while at real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando.
Pablo loved bold lines and shapes but never liked to use one shade of colour. Picasso started in
life by co-invention of collage art. After the Blue period came the Rose Period, in this period he
painted mostly clowns, carnivals and harlequins using red, orgen, pink and earth colors (
this was between 1904 and 1906). Loneliness and poverty are some of the reasons that Pablo
did what he did.


During the start of the 20th century, Pablo experimented thought different ways of panting,
after 1906 he became lifelong friends and a competitor with Henri Matisse to win over the
crowded with their style of modern art.
Picasso lived a long eventful life, living to the age of 91 (1881 - 1973) as for his kids all but one are
still living today, he died at the age of 54 (1921 - 1975).  

The End (because he died).
